Just saying the second season of Hidan no Aria may come but not as soon as many are hoping.

I know, and I was just clarifying ZnT's sales since you used it as an example. As for whether it'll come - but maybe later - possibly. If something just sells decently but not amazingly, it could take longer to get a sequel. Another show might get priority and bump a sequel down. On the other hand, the longer you wait to do a sequel, the more likely there will be even less of a fanbase left when you do. Just look at what happened to the final seasons of Shana and ZnT. They waited too long, everyone had moved on, and both dropped precipitously in sales from their predecessors. It probably wouldn't do Hidan no Aria much good to wait too long to do a sequel, if they're going to do one at all. Might be they decide that whatever sales bump the original novels got was good enough and animating another season won't help enough to offset production costs.

to be fair at least the MC was pretty awesome, and the villain's laugh was historically bad, it at least helps the show not be entirely unwatchable.

I humbly apologize on everyone here's behalf for the horrors we convinced you to watch.
There's no need to apologize. HnA is a masterpiece that far surpasses shows like Clannad and Kanon (2006)

Yeah, I'll remember this laugh forever. Nightmares will keep the memory clear.

This is part of a cool scene from early in the series, it actually had a few memorable/funny parts but this show is totally average at best.

The haters always hear when an "average" show is being discussed.

NOTE: "" are there so you know I'm not being serious, thank you for your understanding, here's an Internet.

Im not a very picky viewer, I love most anime I see, but Aria is one of the ones i really,really liked, but it needs to cover more, Im gonna have to re-watch as my memory is very short term so I forget a lot of anime moments, but I do know I want a new season with more Kinji and Aria.

I heard what it turns into is a just a really generic harem, like no joke i read some of the synopsis's of later volumes and i swear to god evne the fucking emotionless chick and the riko chick have the hots for the main and they just kinda do comedy over that premise for voumes at a time

I really honestly don't think it was a bad show at all. Just something to watch lightly while ur downloading anime or sth. (that's what I did)...
Or maybe it's cuz I had no expectations from this one at all...anyhow, I would really like a season 2, cuz the last episode ended with quite a few questions unanswered.

Would buying the FUNI DVD/BD release help for the making of a new season? Whether it will or not I already pre-ordered mine(my first anime owned, im somehow excited)

Not really, no. It wouldn't specifically hurt of course, but it's such an infinitesimal sum for the original production committee that it couldn't change a decision they've made based on domestic sales performance being below expectations.

As the first post said, it was the decision of the anime production that the sales was not sufficient for a 2nd season. It is more because of the expectation being set too high, NOT because the series did not sell well. An sales average of over 5000 is generally considered good enough for a 2nd season.
